We listened. Dark Star offers an enhanced experience that goes beyond traditional networks, with better data plans and exclusive features that give you more control and flexibility over your mobile service.
Plus we thought the name was cool (and definitely isn’t inspired by the most popular space franchise).
How Dark Star Complements Light Speed and Warp
Dark Star isn’t just another network; it’s a pivotal addition to our lineup. Alongside Light Speed and Warp, Dark Star brings unique features tailored to diverse user needs. While all our networks offer excellent functionality, Dark Star extends coverage by an additional 250,000 miles compared to Warp or Light Speed.

And with our Teleportal feature, you’re really covered. Teleportal lets you switch between networks at any point during your billing cycle, ensuring you’re always on the best network for your location. Whether you’re crisscrossing the country or sticking close to home, Teleportal maximizes your connectivity options, making sure you get the best service wherever you go. Together, our three networks provide a comprehensive solution that adapts perfectly to your lifestyle and needs.

Understanding QCI Levels: QCI9 and QCI8 on Dark Star
When it comes to mobile networks, not all connections are created equal, especially during peak times or in high-traffic areas. Think about the times you try to use your phone at a large concert, a big game, or a music festival.
That’s where Quality of Service Class Identifier (QCI) levels come into play. QCI is a standard used to differentiate the quality and priority of data streams within a network, essentially helping to manage network traffic and prioritize essential services. In simpler terms, it’s like having different lanes on a highway—some are faster, some are slower, and QCI levels determine which lane your data travels in.
QCI9: The Fast Lane
QCI9 is the baseline level of service on the Dark Star network, providing a solid blend of speed and reliability for most everyday mobile activities. Whether you’re browsing the web, streaming your favorite shows, or using apps, QCI9 ensures a consistent and dependable experience. This level is designed to maintain fair access and good quality for all users, even during times when network traffic is high. It’s perfect for general use, offering a robust service that keeps you connected without any hiccups.
QCI8: The Faster Lane
For those looking for an even smoother ride, we offer QCI8, the premium tier on our network. Think of QCI8 as the express lane—designed to offer higher priority access and better performance, especially when the network is bustling with activity. This means faster data speeds, reduced latency, and a more responsive experience overall. It’s ideal for activities that require more bandwidth, like HD streaming, online gaming, or heavy data usage. Upgrading to QCI8 ensures that you get the fastest, most reliable connection possible, even in the busiest times.
Every Dark Star user begins with the QCI9 level, ensuring a high-quality baseline experience. However, for those who want to elevate their mobile experience further, we offer the option to upgrade to QCI8. This upgrade is available for just $4 per line for users on our Light and Shareable plans, and $12 per line for those on our unlimited plans. Welcome to the fast lane.
